His attackers were extreme ist. Kid did the world a favor ridding us of a child molester
Well, regardless of the deceased, I maintain that cheerleading someone who carried firearms across state lines looking for vigilante action is not encouraging good behavior, regardless of how it turns out legally for him.
Does that mean Chauvin is justified in killing George Floyd because of Floyd’s violent behavior in the past when he robbed a pregnant woman at gun point?

He did not do that. Find something else to "maintain".

Why does a prosecutor need to show evidence of past violence?
the prosecutor is desperate because he /she cannot prove the killings that night in Kenosha on August 25th was unjustified. This is a weak ass case fueled by a political agenda
Why does a prosecutor need to show evidence of past violence?
Because he was attacked first and the defense is arguing self-defense. Right now the narrative is a nice kid who went there to clean up graffiti against a person who had previous felony convictions, shot a weapon, and was going after the kid. There are cases where prosecutors should be hearing deafening screams that they need to plea bargain, this is one.

Legally, the prosecution can only present evidence of past "bad acts" under certain limited circumstances, such as to show a pattern of behavior. Otherwise it is considered prejudicial and not permitted into evidence. From the brief overview in the artivle it seems like the previous "bad acts" are not close enough in likeess to the alleged crime to be admissible but it is always hard to tell from a brief news article. It will be interestign to see how the trial proceeds both from a societal and leglaperspective.
